My son is 11 months, and apart from some absent minded suckling in the bath this evening, he seems to have lost interest in breastfeeding. I work full-time and I've been feeding morning and and two evening feeds for the last few months.
My son was a little premature, lost more than 10% of his body weight and due to a post c-section infection, he was pretty much ff from birth. I am a stubborn old thing and ma managed to establish breastfeeding by expressing and expressing. Gradually he learnt how to latch on and I dropped the expressing but kept on with occasional formula feed.
He is formula fed by his grandparents and the childminder and I have continued to breastfeed. Until now. Is it over do you think? Can I get it back up again?
